Schools Best Universities for PhD in Fluid Mechanics

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking recommendations for top universities in Europe and the US that excel in fluid mechanics research for pursuing a PhD. The individual is currently studying at TU Delft, known for its strong fluid mechanics program, but is interested in exploring other institutions. They have identified several prestigious universities, including Harvard, ETH Zurich, Stanford, UMD College Park, Caltech, UC Berkeley, Cornell, and Carnegie Mellon, noted for their research in fluid mechanics. The inquiry specifically seeks insights into the areas of focus within fluid mechanics at these institutions, such as experimental methods or computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and invites suggestions for any additional universities with strong research programs in this field.

Hi,

I am currently doing my masters in mech engineering specializing in fluid mechanics. I am interested in pursuing PhD after my masters. Can anyone suggest the universities which do the best research in fluid mechanics in Europe and US?

What do your advisors say? Start with them, at least.
 
I am not sure. I haven't asked them. I am currently doing my masters at TU Delft. It is really good for fluid Mechanics. But I would like to try other universities too for PhD. According to my research online, I have found Harvard, ETHZ, Stanford, UMD College Park, Caltech, Univ of California Berkeley, Cornell and CMU doing very good research in Fluid Mechanics. However, I want to know specific fields in fluid Mech they are really doing good research like experimental or CFD. I need your advice. Or if i am missing out any university which does really good research, let me know. Thank you.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
